Joe is BRILLIANT. He came highly recommended by a longtime friend. From the start, he and his legal assistant, Antoinette, were always very accessible and responsive. Their office has a high level of communication on all fronts and kept us informed. He remembered every little detail of our ongoing, extremely layered and complicated Article 81 Adult Guardianship case without missing a beat. His knowledge in this aspect of the law is unsurpassed. He prepared us for court and built our confidence. When things got dark, scary and confusing, a short (or sometimes very long) talk with Joe always brought an overwhelming feeling of relief. He was aggressive and passionate. He fought hard. Because of Joseph Ranni, our family member is now happy and we know he'll always be safe. Joe is an honorable man and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend him to anyone I know.

Hired Attorney

Highly DO NOT recommend. He worked on an intense guardianship case for us. Not only did he treat me like was nothing, he also emailed me in the middle of the night to do the same. The judge didn't understand why JOE RANNI did not file PAPERVWORK within a 20 day period as agreed in court 11/14/23. For months asked why this wasn't filled it's almost June 2024, still no answer for it We lost the case, my sister is in jeopardy both physically and mentally. He gave me a few thousand dollars back as if that would make things better. My entire family lost faith in the justice system. Blood is on his hands. hope his misconduct gets him in trouble with the bar association. They have all the information, just waiting for a response. Do not let him sell you a pipe dream. Please research other attorneys in the field.
